    Last Holy Thursday (April 21) we went on a trip to Bagac, Bataan to a place called Las Casas Filipinas de Acuzar. Here's a description of the place from their website.

     

    A living museum of Philippine customs and traditions are re-born in a community typical of the 18th to early 20thcentury Philippines. Historical Principalia or noble class mansions, House of Stone or Bahay na Bato and Wooden Stilt houses that once, were old and decaying architectural pieces of a bygone era and slowly fading into the background of modern urban life are now, restored in a picturesque setting reminiscent of a Juan Luna or Amorsolo paintings. These architectural treasures that have been carefully and painstakingly reconstructed from different parts of the country and rebuilt, "brick by brick" and "plank by plank" now , stand resplendent with pride against a backdrop of majestic mountains, expansive rice fields and a running river that flows to the sea.

     

    Currently, there are twenty seven heritage architectures, each full with memories and history.

     

    Walking along village cobblestone streets or riding one of the caruajes (horse-drawn carriages) commands a feeling of nostalgia and wonder, romance and appreciation of simple living at its best.

     

    At Las Casas Filipinas de Acuzar, the legacy of our forefathers and the beautiful Filipino traditions live on. It is a step back into the past, reliving the age- old traditions and practices distinct to our culture, without leaving the luxury and comforts of the modern world.

     

    A showcase of Filipino talent, ingenuity and craftsmanship, Las Casas Filipinas de Acuzar takes pride in the past... And keeps its hope for the future.

     

    I took some photos of the place and here they are.

    from HEAVYGATIN_BUT_CUTIE: ey MTC Peeps.. i need your ideas on the best things to do for an overnight stay in Tagaytay. I am always there but I seldom stay overnight. This Friday...we plan to stay sa Tagaytay...but we really dont know what to do and where to go aside from the restaurants. After dinner...what's next? Ok lang sana kung dalawa lang kami..pero we are a group of 5-7 peeps...so I need all your juicy ideas. I need to know information on the following:

     

    1. a good place to stay..hotels are not preferred..kasi limited ang gagawin. we plan to bring in drinks kasi kung wala kami ibang magawa. I am looking for place like KENI PO...too bad I dont know the number of Keni PO. It would help if you will give me the name and contact numbers of the place you'll recommend.

     

    2. a good bar - a place we could have fun...a good music... an affordable food and drinks na ok.

     

    3. other night activities......suggestion please :)
